i was wondering where he got the cut on his cheek thanks for pointing that outIf you watch it slowly and pay close attention, you can tell that Hassaku tries slashing him, but Boruto escapes with a cut on his cheek. Still, the fact that he blitzed him like that even though his opponent was going for a kill shot....goddamn.
If Boruto were born in times of war, I am convinced he'd be a prodigy as talented as the likes of Itachi.
